I understand your situation - it's all of our lives too. Nobody that works for a living has had a raise compared to inflation, all of us have less than we ought to.
Tech is a terrible place to be employed right now - at least you will still have a job for the foreseeable future.
Plus, if your income is around the average eye surgeon salaries in the US (250k-300k according to some random website) - your income places you in the 97th percentile.
I'm not saying you should suck it up and deal with it - not at all, this is wrong and you feel the way you do for a reason. It isn't your fault anymore than it's someone's fault for getting stuck at a dead end job.
We are all in the same boat... except for those in super yachts.
The truth is simply that most people are far worse off than you. Except for the billionaires, we are all poor.
